Stop apologizing. Stop recognizing or responding at all.

I miss the old rock stars that wouldn't apologize for anything and flip the middle finger at everything, and their misquotes came because they'd been on a 5 day coke whisky peyote bender with their personal Guru.

Fair enough, but it was reported by Time magazine, which gives it credibility and it was trending on facebook this morning.

Basically police can be dispatched to your place of residence to administer a good solid kick in the a$$, and roving patrols would listen for incidence of a$$holeness and administer the same punishment.
go ahead tell your friend that European soccer is called football, or Jean Luc Picard was a better captain then Kirk, or throw a fit if you think you've been ripped off on your fry count at McDonalds.
Bammm Its the law ma'am.

The dad/husband was also running away and managed to avoid getting shot. Can not even start to imagine what's going on inside his head right now.
Wow - disbelief is the best word to use here.

Because they give a power that must be respected to people who are "anyone nobodys".

I mean, that's a stupid justification, but you can't force a going concern to run your ads if they don't want to. Grande Prairie's decision about what ads to run on the side of its buses is not the city performing some governmental function. If you want to run the ad, do it yourself, or find another outlet that's willing to do so. Maybe someone owns a billboard that will take your money to put it up.

A Spruce Grove woman says she has received an outpouring of support after going public with her story about facing rape threats and an assault while playing minor league hockey.
Kaitlyn Byers, 18, was the only female player on the Spruce Grove Highlanders hockey team last season when she said a male player on an opposing team threatened her with sexual assault.
‘The game was, like, a bit more aggressive than usual,” Byers said recalling the Nov. 1, 2015, game. “There was this one guy and he was kind of targeting me the whole game.”
“His exact words to me were, ‘I want to f–k you,’ and then it changed to, ‘I’m going to f–k you,’ and then he pinned me against the boards and said, ‘I’m going to have sex with you whether you want to or not’ and at this point I was in complete fear and shock.”
